Kubei was just an ordinary pencil and button pusher working a day job, hating his boss and making horrible speeches when one day he fell asleep after pushing an all-nighter. When he woke up, he was bound to a chair, facing three creepy robed women and in a body way too young and way too weak to be his own. As he slowly came to, he realized that he was no longer in the same universe as he was before. He had teleported to the Kingdom of Helius, where an all-powerful church rules its lands and wages war against the elusive group known only as Mages. Armed with an incredibly cocky neural interface that just won’t shut up and his own sheer wit, our MC will find himself not just fighting to survive, but maybe even something bigger than himself.
The mages immediately started smiling.
Benjamin arrived later than expected, and the situation at hand was already temporarily resolved. However, it was relieving to see Benjamin return without any hiccups.
Though…. It seemed he did not intend to return the General to the soldiers…
Benjamin flew down from the sky and landed in front of the mages. He was shaking his head.
"No. These men cannot leave either." His tone was definitive and solid – leaving no room for negotiation.
The crowd was bewildered. The soldiers who heard the exchange cast wary looks at Benjamin and the mages.
"What happened? Why can’t they leave?" The king frowned, obviously confused by the sudden turn of events.
"It’s a lot more than a simple "what happened"." Benjamin’s words were grim. "Here’s the latest news: Icor attacked the borders of Carretas without warning just a few moments ago. Now, it is highly probable that the border has fallen."
"Wh-What?"
Everyone was stunned.
